Hearing the cry, Huang Pusheng shouted loudly: "Whoever is crying outside the court, come to the front quickly. If there is any grievance, I will make the decision for you!"
There were obviously cries of women and children outside the stadium. Huang Pusheng's extremely majestic official words made the spectators move out of the way. Then, a woman with a hungry face dragging two six or seven-year-old children, Walking towards the venue step by step. When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but feel pity. The girl and two children were in ragged clothes, with disheveled faces, holding broken begging bowls in their hands, and they were staggering when they walked. They were really miserable!
The woman dragged the two children, and did not run towards Huang Pusheng. Instead, she walked up to Wu Xiuxian, suddenly knelt down, and cried: "It's been so hard for us, the three of us, to find the father of the child! I heard that you came. Jin Guo, the three of us begged for food all the way before we arrived in Hulun. I finally saw you today and I am satisfied. It doesn¡¯t matter to me, you have to take good care of our two children!"
Wu Xiuxian was still immersed in the joy of entering the top ten. Hearing this woman's words, he was stunned. He didn't say anything for a long time, and his face turned red from holding back!
People in the Ming Dynasty have heard a lot about storytelling, and the most familiar one is the story of Chen Shimei, the former champion of military affairs, who killed his wife and son in order to become rich and noble, and became the consort. Aren¡¯t the scenes before our eyes the very real Chen Shimei and Qin Xianglian?
¡°The more people who don¡¯t know the truth look at Wu Xiuxian, the more he looks like Chen Shimei. Aren¡¯t the top twenty people here riding on spiritual beasts and birds? He came here on foot, and seeing that his family situation was not that good, everyone felt more and more that Wu Xiuxian had abandoned his wife and children to seek wealth in the Kingdom of Jin.
Wu Xiuxian finally came to his senses and said to the woman on the ground: "Sister, I really don't know you! You must have made a mistake!"
Hearing this, the woman grabbed the corner of Wu Xiuxian's clothes with one hand, wiped her tears with the other hand, and cried: "You want to be the consort, I don't care about you, and I don't blame you if you don't want me. But the children are all you." My own flesh and blood, can you bear to let them suffer?"
The emotions of the onlookers were instantly ignited, and they roared and cursed Wu Xiuxian. Wu Xiuxian hurriedly said to everyone: "I really don't know her. These two children, tell me, am I your father?"
The two children's acting skills were even more outstanding. They first shrank back and made a fearful gesture, which made the onlookers burst into tears. Then they threw themselves on Wu Xiuxian, shouting loudly, "Daddy, daddy doesn't want us anymore!", with tears rolling down their faces. .
The onlookers completely forgot about Wu Xiuxian¡¯s advanced cultivation, and they all gathered around, grabbed Wu Xiuxian¡¯s head and beat him. Wu Xiuxian did not dare to use force and held his head to avoid everyone's attacks.
Wang Li stood aside blankly, and finally figured out what was going on. No wonder Long Chengbi insisted on defeating Jin Wuchen. When Wang Li defeated Jin Wuchen, ten of the first twenty people were officials from the Ming Dynasty, and he happened to come with the Dragon Caravan and had a road guide to prove his identity. Among the twenty people, nine people from Wei Zijie had no identification. After the remaining Wu Xiuxian was tricked by Long Chengbi, only ten people from Ming Dynasty officials were qualified! If Wang Li had not defeated Jin Wuchen, Jin Wuchen would have to be defeated. In this way, only nine people could be selected from the top twenty, and then one person would have to be selected from the twenty-first to the fortieth. It was a very big variable, but with Wang Li's victory, this variable disappeared.
Huang Pusheng could no longer bear it. He shouted violently: "There are such heartless people in the Ming Dynasty! It really disgraces the face of the Ming Dynasty. I even tried to abandon my wife and get the position of the consort of the Jin Kingdom! Come on, beat me out with a stick!"
Immediately, a flurry of sticks struck Wu Xiuxian out. The crowd cheered!
Now that the situation is very clear, Wei Zijie stared at Wang Li and said: "What a plan! The green mountains will not change, the green water will flow forever, and the future will be long. Let's go!"
Wei Zijie raised his head and led Huang Hua's people to withdraw.
Huang Pusheng proudly announced the list of Ming Dynasty participants in the second stage of the competition to recruit brides.
Soon, the list was reported to the Jinguo Palace.
In the palace of Lingying, the maid of the Grand Palace of Jin, Qingling, the seventh princess of the Kingdom of Jin, was looking through the lists of second-stage competitions submitted by many countries. When she turned to the list of the Ming Kingdom, she was startled. She raised her head and looked at the list waiting at the door. The guard outside said: "Uli, that man is very lucky!"
Uli was startled when he heard this and said, "Who is the princess talking about?"
Qing Ling patted the official letter from the Ming Kingdom and said with a smile: "Skywalker!"
Uli frowned and said, "Skywalker, maybe there is something really different from ordinary people?" This sentence is indeed close to Wang Li's situation.
Uli asked: "Do you want me to capture him and hand him over to His Highness?"
Qing Ling thought for a while, shook her head and said, "No need, send someone to follow him and see where Wang Li has been these days? I thinkMeet this Skywalker in person! "
Uli whispered: "Yes!"
Wang Li was stunned to be ranked in the top ten, but this is not necessarily a good thing. The second stage of the martial arts competition is to enter the Butterfly Valley, which is called looking for golden swords and jade tablets, but it is actually robbing each other. Wang Li is probably the one with the worst cultivation among all the people who entered the valley. He was even worried that he might die in Butterfly Valley. After all, in Butterfly Valley, fighting with each other is not about competing in the ring. A lot of people must have died in Butterfly Valley!
He has already inquired about the eight countries that have entered the Butterfly Valley: the Ming Kingdom, the Jin Kingdom, the Badu Kingdom, the Kimo Kingdom, the Yan Kingdom, the Borno Kingdom, the Japanese Kingdom, and the Nibin Kingdom. In this way, the total number of people who entered Butterfly Valley was eighty. Although it seemed not many, except for Wang Li, all of them were at the peak of martial arts cultivation.
Wang Li estimated that out of the eighty people, it would be good to have 60 come back.
He discussed this issue with Xiang Jing privately, and Xiang Jing gave the advice to follow Huang Puxian closely, which would be the least dangerous.
Wang Li had not made up his mind about this, but after much effort, he finally agreed with Taotao that he would cut off her spiritual stones for the past few days and plan to exchange all the spiritual stones into talismans and other protective treasures.
Wang Li finished running his mental method, pondered for a moment, and decided to sell some more bones and muscles of northern snow bear cubs. In fact, after spending these days, he doesn't have much left, but in order to cope with the current crisis, he still has to sell some of the few bones of the snow bear. Otherwise, if the people are gone, what's the point of keeping the bones of the snow bear? usefulness?
On the second day, Wang Li got up and went to Wudanfang in disguise, preparing to sell some of the bones of the Northern Snow Bear.
He bargained in Wudanfang and finally exchanged the bones of the Northern Snow Bear for five detonating talismans, plus a pair of sixth-grade body armor! Although this armor is considered to be at the mid-to-lower level among sixth-grade weapons, its effect on saving lives is still significant.
He walked out of Wudanfang heartbroken, but was surprised to find two people standing at the door.
